PREFACE

FM 101-5-2 is the Army's capstone manual for standardized report and message formats. Itprovides a standard, readily available reference from which soldiers as well as automationdesigners can extract report and message templates. FM 101-5-2 is a compendium of formatscommonly used by tactical units from small unit to corps and forms the baseline for reporting andcommunicating as command, control, and communications technology evolves. It allows acommon, authoritative understanding of reporting and communicating to exist among all USArmy elements. It also relates to, supports, and drives command, control, and communicationsdoctrine and US Army interaction with the joint and multinational communications communities.

FM 101-5-2 facilitates the tailoring and task organization of US Army elements throughstandardization of the command, control, and communications formats units use to communicateinternally. The voice-message templates contained in FM 101-5-2 provide the bridge betweentechnologically advanced units and those not yet modernized. This is significant because, whileour modernized units are among the most capable, nonmodernized units currently comprise themajority of the US Armys active component, all of the reserve components, and the majority ofour potential allies. The US Army will continue to modernize all units, but the requirement tocommunicate expeditiously and succinctly via voice will remain. Potential attacks on ourcommand, control, and communications networks, equipment damage, incompatiblecommunications systems, and equipment failures are other consequences that may require the useof voice message formats, even for modernized units.

As the US Army's doctrinal library for report and message voice templates, FM 101-5-2 isintended to prevent units from wasting time and resources designing command and controlformats. Units at different locations and echelons can develop similar SOPs for report andmessage formats (voice and digital) that facilitate command, control, communications, computer,and intelligence (C4I) exchanges. The FM 101-5-2 formats are derived from existing Army BattleCommand System (ABCS), United States Message Text Formats (USMTF), Allied ProceduresPublication- 9 (APP-9) formats, as well as numerous unit SOPs. These sources, especially theformats from existing unit SOPs, have been collected, discussed, and chosen as the most user-friendly, functional, and adaptable.

As a user's manual, FM 101-5-2 will drive the formatting of future ABCS report andmessages, US Army input to the development of APP-9, and the USMTF message formats.Formats contained in FM 101-5-2 are the mechanism through which the US Army seeks to adaptthese joint and multinational formats into a user-friendly and standardized land componentmessage format library. Parallel formats for ABCS, APP-9 and USMTF will enable US Armyunits to operate in joint and multinational command structures without reconfiguring their normalmode of operation. All future digitization formats for the US Army will be based on these voicemessage templates. FM 101-5-2 supports the efforts of FM 100-34-1 (Tactics, Techniques, andProcedures for Command Post Operations- TBP) and is consistent with current and emerging USArmy and joint doctrine.

FM 101-5-2 is directive and prescriptive. Units will use its report and message formats for alltactical communications. Units will not modify these formats unless authorized by the unitcommander for critical information requirements. For Army-wide use, this manual does not

include many branch-specific or technical reports and messages. These formats are contained infield manuals published by their respective proponents. Branch-specific or technical reportscomplement the reports in this manual and are not considered superseded by it. However, use theformats in FM 101-5-2 whenever possible.

Headquarters, Combined Arms Center is the proponent for this publication. Send commentsand recommended changes on DA Form 2028 to the Commander, US Army Combined ArmsCenter and Fort Leavenworth, ATTN: ATZL-SWW-D, Fort Leavenworth, KS 66027-6900.

Unless otherwise stated, masculine nouns or pronouns do not refer exclusively to men;however, reports refer to messages.

SECTION I INSTRUCTIONS

The report and message formats in this manual are designed to ease preparation and manualtransmission of written and voice reports and messages. They provide an organized template tomanually record, pass, and store information. To send a formatted voice message, operators firstfill in the appropriate blanks on the required message template and then read the message over theradio or telephone. The receiver, knowing the message type he is receiving, can easily record theinformation in the proper format. Voice messages normally are used when record traffic devicesare inoperative or not available, or when the tactical situation does not allow adequate time totransmit a record message.

FM 101-5-2 enables standardization of battlefield reporting across all levels of command andthroughout different types of units. Every format listed in FM 101-5-2 operates as a voicemessage format. Using standardized voice formats permits all units to communicate regardless ofthe units level of modernization. It is anticipated that future digital formats will evolve fromthose found in FM 101-5-2.

FM 101-5-2 has three sections: Section One contains instructions on transmitting written andvoice reports and messages. Section Two contains message formats. Its use is discussed below.Section Three contains cross-over indexes. These indexes list the names, numbers, and locationsin this manual of reports commonly associated with selected subject areas.

Message Organization

All radio-telephone report and message formats consist of three main parts: heading, body,and conclusion. Figure I-1 shows an example of the parts of a message. FM 24-19, Chapter 5,discusses message formatting in detail.

The heading is the administrative portion of the format. Its purpose is to identify the messagesource, destination, type, and importance. The heading contains the message addressee,originator, and precedence. It also includes the message classification, if required. (All report andmessage formats in FM 101-5-2 are unclassified. The unit commander or SOP determines theclassification of a completed message.) The completed heading is normally included whensending a hard-copy message, as when sending by TACFAX, courier, or MCS. However, it mustalso be included in voice messages. Figure I-2 gives an example of the standard US Armymessage heading and explains how to transmit it by voice.

The body contains the information the originator wants to send to the addressee. In a properlyprepared message the information is in the line-by-line format established for the message type.This information exchange is the main focus of FM 101-5-2. Figure I-3 shows an example of amessage body.

The conclusion consists of the message authentication. An authentication is normally analphanumeric from the unit signal operating instructions (SOI). The last line of every format inthis manual is the authentication line (the conclusion) of the message. Upon receiving a completemessage that is properly authenticated, the addressee indicates this with a response similar to theone in Figure I-4. If the originator requests an acknowledgement, the addressee replies by

FM 101-5-2

I-2

transmitting the proword WILCO, Lines 1 and 2 of the message being acknowledged, and theproword OUT. If the originator requires an acknowledgement and read-back, the addresseereplies by transmitting WILCO and repeating the lines for which the read-back is requiredfollowed by OUT.

How to Use This Manual

Section Two contains formats listed alphabetically by message name. The body of eachformat is preceded by the reports short title (for example, SIR for Serious Incident Report),report number, and a paragraph of general instructions.

Report Formats Numbering System. Each format has a report number. Report numbersbeginning with the letters A through M indicate that the origin of this message is from APP-9 orDA PAM 25-7. Report numbers beginning with Z indicate that the report was taken from a unitSOP or produced by the Combined Arms Doctrine Directorate of the US Army Command andGeneral Staff College at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. To maintain standardization across the USArmy, do not change format numbers.

General Instructions. Instructions briefly describe the formats use and list a reference thatprovides more detail. When a message is sent at a precedence higher than ROUTINE, that isnoted. Message precedence is indicated in all upper case letters.

Line Number And Name. Each format lists the information the report is used to transmit byline number, line name, and a description of the type of information.

When sending voice messages, the line number is normally transmitted. The line name isnot transmitted unless the name itself is necessary information. For example, Line 3 of anAcknowledge message (AKNLDG) is the message type and is therefore transmitted.Lines 2 and 3 of an Acknowledge message would sound like this when sent by voice(over a secure net): Line 2, 2-39 FA; Line 3, Acknowledge.

When standard information is associated with a line, it is placed in the right column ofthe format in upper-case letters. For example, the standard entries for line 6 of anAcknowledge message are ACKNOWLEDGE and WILCO.

When a line requires detailed instructions, two asterisks precede the instructions (**).

When transmitting information on one line makes the following line redundant, the word(OR) is placed between the lines. Do not transmit redundant lines.

Each format contains lines that require some of the information discussed below. Followthese instructions when preparing messages requiring transmission of these types ofinformation.

Date and Time Group (DTG). The DTG line of a message identifies the messageorigination time. Additionally, many report and message formats require DTG for additionalinformation. Regardless of where the DTG is used within a report or message, it is expressed asDDHHMM(X) MMMYY where-

DD indicates the day of the month.

HH indicates the hour of the day, using the 24-hour clock.

MM indicates the minutes within the hour.

X indicates the alphabetic character that denotes the time zone. In written messages, thetime zone is followed by a space. The time zone indicator will be local time zone unlessspecified in the units operation order or in the FM 101-5-2 format. As an example, DD1972, Joint Attack Air Request, requires that times be sent as Greenwich Mean, or zulutime, which is indicated with the letter Z.

MMM indicates the first three letters of the month of the year. In written messages, allletters are in upper case.

YY indicates the last two digits of the year.

For example, 3 PM local time on 9 September 1997 would be expressed as 091500(L)SEP 97. In a voice message it would be said: Zero niner one five hundred lima (orlocal) September niner-seven.

FM 101-5-2

I-5

Units. The first line of a format requiring an entry for unit is to identify the unit makingthe report. Occasionally, a subunit line is also provided for reporting information from or aboutsubunits. Unit SOPs dictate the format for the unit name; for example, call sign.

Locations. Use the Military Grid Reference System (MGRS) to express all locations unlessthe format specifies a different coordinate system such as latitude and longitude (LAT/LONG) orUniversal Transverse Mercator (UTM). A complete MGRS location includes a longitudinal zonedesignated by a number (for example, 32), a latitudinal band designated by a letter (for example,T), a 100,000 meter grid square designated by two letters (for example AR), and a grid coordinatedesignated by digits. The UTM Grid Zone Designator consists of the longitudinal zone andlatitudinal band (for example, 32T). The MGRS Grid Zone Designator is the two-letter 100,000meter designator (for example, AR). (See FM 21-26 for further details on MGRS.)

Send all locations as six-digit grids preceded by the 100,000 meter grid square designator,for example AR121989 unless instructions state otherwise. To avoid confusion do not transmitthe zone and band indicators unless requested or required in the message format.
